Anyone applying to Nursing PhD programs for Fall 2010?

I am still looking for a program that I feel is a good match for me. I have been looking at Capella, but I also would like something that is ground based and somewhat local to me in North Carolina. Best of luck in your application.

A good fit is an important thing. I'm applying now to a few programs, and they are also VERY interested in why I chose to apply to them and how I interpret a match between my research interests and the university. Thanks for your kind wishes, and I also hope that you fine the best program for you!

I plan to enroll in a Nursing PHD program hopefully Spring 2011. I am going active duty Army in March 2010. I received my MSN in December 2004 and am practicing as an Adult NP. I am looking into Capella as well. I will keep up with this thread to hopefully learn from you all that are ahead of me:wink2:. Best wishes everyone!

I hope that everything goes well for you on active duty!

I just finished my first application and sent it in to the university. I'm pretty nervous, but I made contact with faculty and researched the fit, so I'm hopeful!

I'm now working on my next application. This application requires a writing sample instead of a personal or goal statement. They also do not want GRE scores. Since so much seems to be riding on this writing sample, I'm spending the majority of my off-work time on it.

I wish everyone luck!
